Thanks, those are useful suggestions.

As is probably clear, I was thinking of setting up an address book
for my own use, using a PHP/XML format,
and I just wondered if there was any kind of agreed standard in this area.

vCards and Jabber seem to be alternative approaches;
but as far as I can see no format has won general approval,
which I find rather surprising.
